IMPROVEMENT IN WRINGERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 178,981. dated June 20, 1876 application filed May 12, 1876.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE S. WALKER, of Erie, in the county of Erie and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements-in Clothes Wring'ers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of. this specification.
My invention relates to clothes-wringers.
In the drawing, Figure l is a side elevation of my device; Fig. 2, an, end view, showing the manner in which the frame is constructed in two parts.
My invention consists in the following parts and combinations, as hereinafter specified and claimed, wherein A is a metallic frame, so fashioned and constructed as to accommodate all the working parts of my device, as shown in the drawings. This frame is made in two parts, each so constructed that when united they form a single frame, having the appearance of being split longtudinally through its entire portion. B is a lever of the third order, fulcrumed or pivoted to the frame A at B. Power is applied to its free extremity by means of a cord or any suitable connection, which passes downward and is attached'to a treadle, whereby pressure upon said lever may be accomplished by the foot of the operator. The weight is at the connection or link 0, which couples the lever B and the yoke I). The said yoke extends longitudinally above the elastic roller, and terminates at either end with a bearing upon the shaft or axis of the roller D.
It will be readily understood that when downward pressure. is exerted upon the lever B, this pressure will be received, through the link 0 and yoke D, upon the roller- D. By this means the requisite degree of squeezingpressure is obtained between therollers D and E, thereby dispensing with all set-screws, pressure-sprin gs, or the like. When pressure is removed from the lever B, the roller D is left free to move upward, and can readily accommodate articles of different size and thick- .ness'between the rollers D and E. To the tain in its operation. Upon one section of the frame A are-provided stems a, by which the device may be fastened to a standard, frame,
or tub, by fitting the same into holes, loops,
or any suitable device. The method of attachment which I prefer is by means of the plate G, which maybe secured upon a tub,
frame, or the like. From this plate projects the boss or projection G,through which an opening is made sufficient to accommodate the stem to. Theplate G and boss G are cast in a single piece. 9 is a set-screw, passing through the projection G, which, by impinging against the stem a, will securely hold the wringer in its proper position.
To constructmy wringer, take the two sections of the frame A, as shown; introduce the lever B, yoke D, rollers D and E, as shown in Fig. and unite the two sections of the frame A by screws or rivets A. What I claim is l. The combination, with the frame A, made in two sections, as shown, of the lever B, link 0, and yoke D, substantially as and for the purpose shown.
' 2. The combination, with the frame A, made in sections, as described, bf the lever B, link C, yoke D,.and elastic roller D, substantially as and for the purpose shown.
3. The combination of the frame, constructed as shown, lever B, link 0, yoke D, rollers D and E, and handle F, substantially as and for the purpose shown.
In'testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. v
GEORGE S. WALKER.
